Thank you for your input. The Family Memorial, Mom passed a little over a year ago, and Dad passed on Sunday, we are going to have all the cars in a parade in Miles City Montana in May. They will be riding with us. For a couple that reached a month or two short of 60 years of marriage. we will be honored, and so will they.

After seeing the projects I have seen here on the Ford Barn, and the years spent on those, we are looking forward to being involved with which ever club we join.

We are already talking about how to travel with a '28 when we go see the country 3 years from now.

As for my Wife and I, we live on projects. This will be a project that will, more than likely, define what we do in retirement. (Which isn't very far away)

Sorry to hear about your father in law. I inherited my Model A from my grandfather in Montana near Havre and now live north of you in Tacoma. I drove through Miles City frequently as I'm from Bozeman and attended college, grad school and flight instructed in Grand Forks, ND for seven years. I have learned a lot and accomplished a lot with my car since joining and bringing my car out here a year and a half ago. Its a shame my grandfather was never able to finish getting the car mechanically in order as I have and I'm sure he'd be proud to see what I have done but I'm sure he's riding with me when I'm out having fun with it and I think about him all the time when I'm driving it. I'm sure you'll get that kind of enjoyment out of it also and its great to keep them in the family. I'm hoping to make it out to Bend Oregon this year too so I hope to see you there!
